X11: update XDND protocol from version 4 to 5 (#988)
Some applications insist on sending XDND protocol version 5 and rejected (ignored) FLTK as DND receiver because we allowed only protocol version 4. Known apps: Google Chrome and Chromium. This commit enables XDND protocol version 5 in FLTK programs as DND receiver.
